Iphone 3GS Screen goes blank with full battery and ipod has no sound

Since 10th Feb my Iphone 3GS has had no sound on the ipod, although I can see the track is playing, and more importantly the battery just goes every few mintues regardless of the amount of battery left.
I'm assuming this has been caused by the 6.1 update. However,  the 6.1.1 fix seems aimed at iphone 4S and it does not show up on my itunes.
Prior to 10th Feb phone worked perfectly.
Any advice?

First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
What about free space? Do you have enough free space on your iPad? With iOS 7 it is recommended that you have 15-20% of the storage space on the device free.  For a 16 GB device that is 2.4-3.2 GB free. For a 32 GB device that is 4.8-6.4 GB free. For a 64 GB device that is 9.6-12.8 GB free.

  • Iphone 3gs screen goes blank when it rings/gets a text

    My iphone screen goes white when i get an incomming call. I can answer it if i slde my finger across the general area where the answer switch will be.
    In order to view the screen after the iphone has locked I have to hit the home button followed by the power button 3 times.
    Does anyone know if this can be fixed? If not will i be able to get a replacement. I'd be willing to pay as its out of warranty?
    Thanks in advance for any help you can give me!

    Remove your case and see how it works. It may be blocking the proximity sensors that turn the screen off/on during a call.

  • When ever i insert microsim my screen goes blank with just apple logo on screen ...Without sim it is ok...I dont know what to do

    I just recently bought IPAD2....Whenever i inserted my microsim into sim tray, the screen goes blank with only apple logo to show...It does not start till i remove the sim and press both Home and Power buttons simulataneously...Can somebody help what shall i do????

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Why does my iphone 3gs screen goes black after reaching another party and won't come back on to press end the call

    why does my iphone 3gs screen goes black after reaching another party and won't come back on to end the call

    hi smalley3,
    Welcome to the Forums.
    The flickering issue maybe due to a bad LCD cable or in some cases, a faulty GPU (the GPU is integrated to the CPU, and the CPU is soldered to the motherboard).
    If there's still no image on the screen even after connecting an external display then you likely have a bad GPU.
    In this case, I recommend you contact support for service (and also to see if there's a consideration that can be done on the warranty repair).

    Regards
     

  • My iphone 3gs screen is blank

    i need help my iphone 3gs screen is blank
    and will not turn on

    i have in the meanwhile come to the understanding that the phone is or needs to be put into "DFU", dfu is the process when you hold the power down for 10 seconds then hold the power and home button down for 15 seconds and then release the power and hold home for 15 seconds, this will reset your device and bring u to the connect to itunes screen.
    TRy that lets see if it works.
    I Still get an error -1 when trying to restore?
    nowhere on the troubleshooting site / error codes?
    Does anyone else know?

  • I have updated my iphone 3gs to ios 5 from 4.1 and it has locked back to the original sim card in america as i live in ireland is there any way i can unlock ios 5 or delete it off my iphone and go back to 4.1 ?

    I have   updated my iphone 3gs to ios 5 from 4.1 and it has locked back to the orginal sim card in america but as i live in ireland an american simcard wont work here is there any way i can unlock ios  5 or delete it off my iphone and go back to 4.1 so i can use my iphone ?

    It sounds like you have a hacked/unofficially unlocked iphone.  When you update, it will indeed lock it back, as it should.
    The ONLY place that can legitimately unlock an iphone is the carrier to which they are locked and no U.S. carrier does this.

  • IPhone 4 screen goes blank after lock screen

    My iPhones screen works perfectly on the lock screen but as soon as i enter the passcode it goes blank.
    Its still fully functional in terms of recieving calls, vibrating, screenshotting etc. but what could i do to fix it.
    I've already tried reseting the settings by holding the home and sleep button at the same time.
    What else can I do?

    I'm sorry, but this makes no sense. What do you mean by "screenshotting"? How can you tell anything is working if the screen goes blank after you enter the passcode?
    If a reset didn't fix it, try a restore. If that doesn't fix it, restore it as a new device.

  • Screen goes blank with slightest movement of the lid; problem related to hidden sensor

    I posted this in the display section but got no answer. Because it's hardware related, I am giving it a try here;
    The problem occurs in the following 3 ways:
    - Vista: when the lid is moved back and forth a *little* bit, the screen goes blank/black; restore is possible by first closing lid, waiting a few seconds till the lid light dims; then quickly bringing the lid back in position and press any button brings it back to life
    - Windows 7: almost identical, exept no button press is needed; this could be a settingin power scheme, I didn't check because it's not so relevant
    - Linux: same but no way to bring it back to life again; reboot system is only possibility
    This means the magnetic sensor in the bezel that deactivates the system when the lid is closed is still working, but I don't understand why the screen becomes black when it is slightly moved back/forth ? I have read about  some sensor hidden behind the hinge depending on the model but very little info how to solve the problem
    Could someone explain what is happening and how to find the cause ?

    If only I could understand what's going on that would help me A LOT. I understand this is difficult, but there must be some HP expert who knows about this issue. Understanding the problem is the first step.
    What could be useful for me to know is where exactly is that sensor, how to locate it, how to test it, what is the module or part to replace it if needed etc.
    Here are the notebook and its specs:

  • Iphone 3gs screen goes white after unlooking but works fine before

    Hi everyone.
    This is my first post here.
    I got an Iphone 3GS that worked fine yesterday and then suddenly after the unlook the screen the screen goes totlay white.
    I have tried the rebot thing and after that the phone works untill it looks the screen and the it back to white again.
    I have tried to update the phone software to the latest because the phone looks fine in iTunes. No change
    I have done the factory reset no change.
    I have even but an old backup to the phone when the phone worked. no change.
    What can I do to get my phone working?
    thanks in advance

    This is a rare but classic iPhone 3GS White Screen Problem. It is due to faulty LCD Display.
    Before and during any iPhone 3GS repair make sure the iPhone is OFF. Because the 3GS Logic Board and new LCD is vulnerable to damage when repaired with it being ON.

  • Iphone 3gs screen goes white, after locking ???

    my iphone 3gs botts up fine, and everything works, but as soon as i lock it and then try to unlcok it, the screen turns white. tbhis has happened after i have replaced the digitizer and LCD ?? please help, what could the fault be ???

    I am not jailbroken, on 5.1.1 (9B206) and have been dealing with this problem since last night. I was using the phone like normal, nothing changed and once I tried to unlock it was white screen. I went to bed and once my alarm in the phone was going off this morning it kept being the white screen and I could not unlock it. After snoozing it somehow from hitting home and the sleep/wake button, the screen randomly came back to life. Now 9 or so hours later, with nothing being updated, added to the phone or changing any sort of way, the white screen when I try to unlock it is back.
